Important new study in @JAMAPsych highlighting peer-to-peer transmission of psychiatric disorders. The optimistic implications are the potential for peer-to-peer transmission of connection and resilience. @iDECIDEteam @mgh_cam

Teen was asked: “What’s the #1 reason why you use drugs?”

Teen responds with, “It’s easier to get drugs than an appointment with a therapist.”

We are failing. Period.

“Gavin’s mission at the Devine Recovery Center is the ‘Restoration of Dignity.' Addiction equals isolation, and connection equals recovery. We believe people helping people, one day at a time, creates the connections that support the recovery process.”

It’s a grim reality that everyone knows someone — or is that someone — impacted by substance use disorders. On #InternationalOverdoseAwarenessDay we grieve those we have lost and recommit as a community to tackling this epidemic and ending the stigma.
